From your and Jan's posts it sounds rather like the vmware X driver is simply broken. Try installing using the 'basic graphics' option in the 'troubleshooting' bit of the DVD boot menu. That'll make it use vesa instead of vmware, both during installation and after installation. Might work better. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
